Try:
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -a [deny][reject] -b -S ipaddress_to_monitor_or_block
You could add -D your_computer_ipaddress at the end to specify a particular
ipaddress associated with a particular NIC in the machine. Also, with the
[deny][reject] you need to pick one without the brackets (so just 'deny' or
just 'reject'). deny will be a black hole and will not report errors, but
reject will.
